Need restoration shop recommendations
 

Aloha Everyone!

If you know me, you know I inherited my Grandpa's 1970 C20 and began the restoration in Utah. Right after I got the frame completed I moved back to Hawaii and shipped the truck with me.

Since being here I haven't had the time to work on it, but over the past 3.5 years I have been saving money! I am now ready to find a restoration shop to send my truck to and get it completed.

This isn't a "what if" or "I wonder how much" question. This is a real, I have the necessary funds and will be traveling to hopefully meet with shops over the next two months, choose one, and send my project to them to begin by summer.

Please comment below with any recommendations.

Obviously California or western states would be the most logical, but I am honestly open to anywhere.

I appreciate all the feedback.

Mahalo!

Check out the k20 and blazer builds linked below. Mild to Wild Inc in Albuquerque has helped me with both and are familiar with these trucks. Shoot me a pm if you want more details and good luck with your search. Pete
